Popoma: Difference between revisions

'''Popoma''' was created on the XIII Century by an italian magical girl during the Great Magic War between magical girls and witches. The first purpose of the language was to hide the attack plans of the magical girls from the witches. After the end of the war, the language was considered the official language of magical girls, overthrowing the reign of the Latin language, the acceptance of the new language grew quickly, in some years, all of the magical girls living in the Italian Peninsula knew Popoma. By the end of the XIII century, from the North of Africa, to the British Isles, from the Iberian Peninsula to Asia Minor, Popoma was a well spread language around the tongues of magical girls

During the Great Magic War (1220 - 1225), a magical girl whose name was '''Giovanna''' (1212-1229), she come up with a script and some new sounds to create a language that could confuse with witches and hide the true attack plans of the magical girls. The language was a sucess and the War was easily won some months after the language creation. The language was a sucess, and was quickly adopted as the Italian Magical Girl's official language. By 1290, the language was well spread around the European continent, including the North of Africa and Asia Minor.  

The language evolved as well the society of Magical Girls, in 1312, in Genoa, place of birth of Giovanna, was built the first headquarters of the Magical Girl's Order, where they taught Popoma and Magical Arts. During the Golden Age, the Order was powerfull and was an ally of the Humans. Which in 1437, the Pope Eugene IV and the then Headmistress  of the Magical Girl's Order signed a treaty of friendship between the Magical Girls and the Catholic Church. The Magical Girls were also present at the Discoveries, staying in some settlements, where they looked for native magical girls in order to teach them Popoma. More headquarters were built in Europe.

In fact, the presence of the Magica Girl's Order was more predominant in South Europe, ranging from Portugal to Sicily.

During the 2nd Great Magic War (1662 - 1668), the witches were facing the magical girls again for the control of the HRE and Scandinavia. Of course, the Magical Girls society wasn’t that united, and at the beginning of 1667, a small group of them betrayed the Headmistress and taught the language to the witches of the North (most of them lived in places like atual Germany, Denmark and Poland). The chaos put into practice, due to the mistrust between Kings, Princes, Pope and magical girls, a lot of them were expelled from Europe, other suffered mass persecutions, since the monarchs didn’t know if someone speaking Popoma was a magical girl or a witch. Those years were known as the decline of classical Popoma. By 1668, few places still accepted the magical girls in Europe, this included Portugal, Corsica, Sardinia, Cyprus and England (Oxford area). But the Headmistress decided to call every living Magical Girl Order member to promolgue a migration act to Africa (1672 - 1773), and then later America (1696 - today) and Asia (1676 - today)

The Magical Girl's Order, plus Popoma presence was already there before the migration, but unfortunally, the natives weren't very found of the language they used, since they already were using their own languages. Also, there was this new problem, the Europeans that said Magical Girls weren't welcomed in their territories, including oversea ones. So, Magical Girls needed to act illegally in Africa, unless they found some islands. Which they did, they claimed for theirselves the islands of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. The influence areas in continental Africa were abandoned by 1773.  

America was a huge discovery, the girls started to migrate to Modern USA around 1696, and to Canada around 1705, sadly like in Africa, the Magical Girls were on illegal disguises to not show their magic to humans. But everything changed after the American Independence, the Magical Girls were happily accepted by the newborn state, even helping on the independence war. Most of Canadian Magical Girls fled to the United States, which is one of the biggest sectors of the Order.

After Africa, the Magical Girls departed from Cyprus to go to India, but first they stopped at the Red Sea and the Socotra Islands where they faced with the Ottomans and the muslim Magical Girls, they clamed Socotra for the order and stay there for a few years until all Magical Girl Order members were expelled by the Ottomans, some stayed in Socotra, others sailed to India bringing Popoma with them. India presence was like african presence, the europeans were already there and their law was still in practice until 1908. The illegal settelments in India and Sri Lhanka were put in practice between 1715 untill 1779, but the influence there was huge. Popoma is the most spoken Magical Girl's Language in India.

Magical Girls reached China (Hainan) in 1782, Formosa in 1785 and Korea in 1788. They were easily accepted after knowing through translations that the Europeans were expelling their order from the continent. Here Popoma suffered alterations, the classical Popoma disappeared completly. They claimed the Jeju Island.  

The Magical Girls reached Japan in 1792, with similar reactions like in China and Korea. Popoma changed too, and the three points of the Asian continent were connected by the Magical Girls and their language. Influence of Japanese in Popoma is really obvious, specially in new terms and words that appeared after 1800. The MGO claimed the Tsushima Island, the Iki Island and the Oki Islands.  

After the MGO was sucessfully established in Asia and in the claimed territories, a convention was held in Kyoto. This convention briefily resumed to three main points:
